Reborn in 1963: I Hunted and Stockpiled Meat During a Famine

"Can't you see that? He's already dead." Qin Qiming stood up, drew his gun, tied a rope around it, and stuck it into the hole.

Just as he expected, the badger was completely cold and offered no resistance, so he dragged it out.

It had severe wounds, with a large chunk of flesh bitten off.

Clearly, the badger encountered other animals while leaving its burrow, was injured during the escape, and died before it could even crawl back into the burrow.

The pursuing animals couldn't enter the deep burrow and eventually gave up.

This suggests that the animals attacking badgers are large, because most animals can enter the burrow, but the burrow gets narrower and deeper, making it difficult to escape once trapped.

Badgers typically don't provoke others, but they aren't afraid of provocation from other animals because they are close relatives of the honey badger.

However, in the mountains, facing large felines such as tigers, leopards, or lynxes, it has almost no chance of survival, and escaping is extremely difficult.

After tossing the badger into the basket, the three of them went back to check the spot where they had set the trap.

They caught a few wild rabbits and pheasants, and then hurried back to the village, having to return before dark because the nights in the mountains were extremely dangerous.

Ma Quanxue: "Qiming, everyone says you're lucky, that you never come back empty-handed from your mountain trips. I didn't believe it before, but now that I've seen it with my own eyes, I know it's all true. You come back looking for something and even find a badger. Who else can do that?"

Ma Liang replied, "You'll get used to it after seeing it more often."

It's no longer surprising that Qin Qiming can bring back things whenever he goes into the mountains.

This kind of good fortune is not something everyone has.

Qin Qiming went into the mountains many times, almost always taking great risks. Rather than saying he was lucky, it would be more accurate to say he was capable and had a long life; otherwise, he could not have lived such a comfortable life.

The three returned to the village.

Ma Liang returned home, and Qin Qiming and Ma Quanxue took the gifts to the village chief's house.

"Auntie, what are you busy with?"

Hearing the sound, the village chief's wife looked towards the door, stood up, and greeted him.

"Qiming, didn't you go to visit Xiaoyao? How is she?"

"No problem, just raise them slowly. I caught some game earlier and brought it back with me. Tomorrow at dawn, I'll have Uncle Tian distribute some to everyone in the village to improve their meals."

As he spoke, Qin Qiming put the basket on the ground and took out the rabbit and badger from it.

"We bumped into a badger on the way back. Uncle Yao has been talking about rendering oil from it, and now we can finally use it. We can use the skin later, and we'll just stir-fry or stew the meat."

"Picked it up?"

Upon hearing this, the village chief's wife shook her head vigorously, her face filled with disbelief.

"You can actually find this thing? I've lived this long and I've never seen anyone find a badger."

"Aunt Tian, ​​it really was found."

Ma Quanxue chimed in, leaving the village chief's wife speechless for a moment.

What a blessing it is to find a badger in the mountains!

After chatting for a few minutes, Qin Qiming went home.

"elder brother!"

Just as I returned and closed the door, it was suddenly pushed open a crack, and three little heads popped in one after the other.

Qin Qiming smiled, straightened up, and clapped his hands: "Where did you go?"

"I went to my sister Yi's house to play!"

Qin Qixiu threw herself into Qin Qiming's arms, and Xia followed suit, while Chen Xu stood aside.

After chatting for a while, the children ran out of the house.

"Slow down!"

"Know it!"

After dinner, Liu Xiuqin used an iron basin to wash the pants that Qin Qiming had taken off.

Min originally planned to do the laundry, but Liu Xiuqin said that Min needed to prepare lessons that evening, so she would take over the task of doing the laundry.

It must be said that this mother-in-law is indeed a good mother-in-law!

After the meal, the children took turns washing themselves under Liu Xiuqin's care.

The washbasin was an iron basin that Qin Qiming obtained through Wang Laoliu.

The two girls' iron basins are red, similar to the wedding basins used by newlyweds.

The iron basin that Chen Xu used was a single color.

Although taking care of children may seem simple, it is very demanding.

After Liu Xiuqin had arranged for the children to wash up, she lit an oil lamp and had the children do their homework.

Qin Qiming, on the other hand, sat in the courtyard admiring the starry sky.

He casually picked a leaf, put it in his mouth, and blew on a tune that was often played on the radio.

As he played the music, his gaze remained fixed on Min's room on the second floor.

The oil lamp was lit; she was preparing her lesson.

Suddenly, Qin Qiming remembered what Min had said to him: "Why don't we just not take any measures, and... well..."

Qin Qiming held her tightly.

"No, the drought will be severe in the next few years, and your body will face a huge challenge if you get pregnant."

Qin Qiming is not the kind of person who acts without considering the consequences.

He resisted the urge several times.

Although sometimes he desperately wants children.

But reason told him that if he himself was not doing well, why should he bring his child into the world to suffer?

So he chose to endure it, and if he really couldn't bear it, he would consider other ways.

Min was very anxious.

Qin Qiming didn't want her to get pregnant too early, so he explored and groped her many times.

This made her feel happy, but she couldn't get direct satisfaction from it.

Wang Laoliu needs to speed up his scheme!

After Qin Qiming played two tunes, several children in the village exclaimed, "Dad, that sound is so beautiful! We want to hear it again!"

All the men in the village shouted in unison, "Get out of here!"

Qin Qixiu whispered to Huixia, "Huixia, such a pleasant voice must be my brother playing that tune!"

Xia nodded: "He's probably blowing it for my sister!"

Qin Qixiu's eyes shone: "Your sister is so lucky!"

We are all blessed!

Chen Xu touched his ears in the darkness: "This sound is amazing!"

Min was in the room, her heart racing and her hands trembling.

Qin Qiming, you're really something!

You can actually blow leaves?

The music is indeed beautiful!

Min once told Qin Qiming that when she was in school, there was a teacher who could blow leaves. Although she had only heard about it, it was said to be very pleasant to the ear.

At that time, Qin Qiming did not say that he could also do it.

However, to everyone's surprise, he played two songs in one go that night.

Qin Qiming put the leaf into his breast pocket, smiled, and went back to his room to sleep.

Min slept well.

Wang Tiantian and Liu Dacui tossed and turned in bed.

Wang Tiantian has an average appearance, except for slightly fair skin.

Liu Dacui has a black mole on the corner of her mouth and a flat figure.

Both of these women like Qin Qiming.

Unfortunately, she insists on portraying herself as a beautiful woman.

However, Qin Qiming had no interest in them and never gave them a second glance.

The next morning, Qin Hao rushed over, saying that more than a hundred sheep were missing from the farm.

Upon hearing this, Qin Qiming looked surprised, then his brows furrowed: "Then what are you waiting for? Go look for it!"

Qin Hao looked around and, seeing that no one was paying attention, then approached.
